    D&D 4E 4E Hack: "Fiction First" Playtest

    I just read blood sacrifice. Do you have any idea what my group would do with a ritual like that? They'd carry around a slave train of goblins or halflings on their pirate ship and spend every voyage between islands sacrificing stuff with the efficiency of a modern slaughterhouse. They'd...

    D&D 4E 4E Hack: "Fiction First" Playtest

    love to read it. May I attempt to analyze your hack in a few ways, and you can correct me as I go? 1- biggest reward system is social and regards investment into the setting (settlements) and payoffs to the PC. The rules for settlements arose for that purpose, as did a few other rules. 2-...

    Dungeon Master's Kit is redundant

    Legitimate point. However, the Rules Compendium is so darn convenient to reference from. I prefer it. "All in one place." As for the adventures- I'd rather actually buy adventures. I wasn't aiming to buy a 2 part adventure- I wanted a DM's guide. I'm intrigued enough to read them more in depth...

    D&D 4E 4E Hack: "Fiction First" Playtest

    Hey, Natespank from the Forge. Mind if I ask a few questions about your game? I'd like to steal a lot of your ideas... I'm really enjoying your hack so far! My first question is about the PC hit points by level table, and that whole part of the Skills Combat section. You've replaced monster...

    Best Published Modules and Encounters

    Awesome! I love it. I just grabbed the D&D essentials books too- I was using the older 4e stuff. The monsters are WAY stronger now! The solo's don't seem to suck! Ghouls are better! This all tempts me to reboot the campaign with this new material. Thanks guys! Anything else out there in the...

    Best Published Modules and Encounters

    Hey guys. My players have challenged me to find encounters and adventures that are dangerous and interesting enough for them. Ordinarily I use all my own content, but I want some outside inspiration. What are the best, hard, interesting heroic modules/delves I can get my hands on right now for...
